Hungarian CC: With a "stitched" Hawking Rallycar to season-opener Túrkeve

It’s less than one week left until the opening event of this year’s season in the "Hungarian Cross-Country Rally Championship", which will be held in Túrkeve (Hungary) on 11-13 April 2014.

The marathonrally.com partner-team "Sólyom" from Hungary has already repaired those damages that "Hawking" (Nissan Navara Prototype) suffered during the test two weeks ago (we reported). The broken front bumper has also been repaired, proving Olivér Solyom’s sense of humour, by stitches.

Olivér Sólyom: "I like the stitches on the car, it’s somewhat Frankenstein style. I think this won’t determine how we perform in Túrkeve. Our plan is to measure and to get used to what the car is capable of in race situation. I would like Túrkeve Cup to be an effortless race in good atmosphere."

Sólyom Team will be represented by two cars: In the TH (open) category the crew István Gyabronka / Gábor Radics, and in the T1 category (prototypes) the crew Olivér Sólyom / Mátyás Galbács will fight for the victory. The team expects everyone at the spectator areas and at the service park.
